It's a kegger, right? "Hegseth orders rare, urgent meeting of hundreds of generals, admirals"

Wife: I want to fight stupid Republicans on Facebook. Me: 's why I only use FB for Messenger now. Wife: But you still go on X and fight. Me: Nope, cancelled that account in Jan. Wife: You still get on Bluesky. Me: Cus I can limit my feed to who I follow and stay informed without the MAGA bullshit.

Can the US be kicked out of the UN, since we're clearly no longer united with anyone, including our own citizenry? Trump probably wants that, the other members of the UN probably want that, it's a win-win, and it's one less venue where he can showcase to the world how shitty we are at voting.

What if all of the predicted Rapture Days we've been promised/threatened with were real and we're all just such ugly-souled disappointments that nobody makes the cut? I would be accepting of this indictment of us... not sure how the Christian Militia feel about being excluded from Raptures.

Since Trump declared we should "fight like hell to avoid Tylenol", here are some fun facts: - There is ZERO proven connection between Tylenol and autism. - Autism was first diagnosed before Tylenol was a twinkle in Big Pharma's eye. - Tylenol is not in the Epstein files, unlike Trump.

Love Disney or hate 'em, you have to appreciate the carefully-worded FUCK YOU to Trump and his clown cabinet. Kimmel returns Tuesday... I still won't watch it (way past my old-ass bedtime) but I support the about face.

I'm far from saintly or Christian (proud agnostic) but I think I've been a mostly decent person to my fellow human (or avoided them where decency is impossible). It would be sweet, hilarious irony were I Raptured tomorrow while all these fake-ass Christians remain on the hellscape they deserve.

Sunny day, weekend is just around the corner, The Fall is in the air (in every connotation)... ... feels like it's about time to get Epstein trending on social media again.

Take 1: LMAO Trump is a dumbass. Antifa isn't a real organization. Take 2: That's the point, he can label anybody 'Antifa' and send his goons after them now. (editor's note: "now"???) My Take: "terrorist" and "freedom fighter" are synonymous. Which you use depends on your support/opposition.

Congressional Dems need to step up their offensive. Threaten to let the government shut down unless the Epstein files discharge bill is passed. Also start threatening Rs with their political future if they don't sign on. They have very little leverage in too few situations. Make the most of this.

now *THAT's* funny

Kash Patel: This is what happens when you let law enforcement do their job. Tyler Robinson's father:

Republicans watching the Charlie Kirk assassination investigation and arrest unfold in real time and finding out the suspect, Tyler Robinson, is very white, very male, very not trans, very Mormon, very not brown, and very seemingly not leftist.

I'm not going to pretend I'm in any way bothered by the loss of Charlie Kirk. He gave nothing positive to this world, except perhaps helping the next wave hone their debate skills. My only regret is this wasn't a creator of this hellscape, just a mouthpiece. Maybe a warning was his purpose in life.

The Republican mantra (and curse): I either oppose it or don't care about it unless it happens to me. Thoughts and prayers and middle fingers... actually, seems I'm all out of thoughts... oh, and prayers too.

"I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights" - Charlie Kirk, 2023 www.mediamatters.org/charlie-kirk...

WHO DID THIS???!!!

I would imagine... and I would certainly hope, that every country with any kind of profitable export is looking at the US and considering how they can: a. Exclude the US while remaining profitable and also have tariff leverage if what they have, the US needs. b. Get what they need from US elsewhere.

Trump heading into an Epstein sex party

Remember that time Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize? Yeah, so does Donald Trump. Every day. Every. Single. Day.

Ted Cruz: JB Pritzker is fat... believe me, I know fat when I see it... every day... in the bathroom... hiding my little beta peen.

I'm finding more of more of the music from my formative years proving to be unnervingly prescient. We should have had more than enough time to become better than who/what we were 40+ years ago... #MusicSky #NewModelArmy #ChristianMilitia

I wish somebody would ask him to specifically list the "seven" or however many wars he claims to have ended and then hand him a map and ask him to show us on it where the wars were.

Also, solid defense play by Thomas Massie, calling out that one of the major financiers of his political opposition is in the Epstein files... a shame he didn't throw the name out but I get it.

I full props to Thomas Massie not only for co-sponsoring this move to release the Epstein files but also for calling out his House GOP colleagues who tried to offer up a symbolic, performative, as he called it "fig leaf" of a motion to ask the DOJ to do what this bill will force them to do.

Today I am giving Marjorie Taylor Greene a one-day pass. One day, that's it. We still know who and what she is... but today, she is finally fighting a good and righteous fight. Tomorrow she has the opportunity to earn another pass. Your move, Marge.

The internal struggle right now to despise Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, and Nancy Mace while hearing that they are stepping forward and publicly signed on to the discharge request for releasing the full payload of Epstein files, is a very real one for me. Thankfully this isn't about me.

Hopefully there's as much post flooding about the Epstein victims' press conference over on Twitter as there is here. Chef's kiss if it's all over Truth Social also but that might be asking too much. For as much Epstein noise as MAGATards have made over the years, they should be eating this up.

We need more of this perspective. As much as we (DemSocs) would all love to be enjoying Medicare For All, free college, etc. right now, we have to understand and accept that a sudden giant leap to the left is neither practical nor realistic. Baby steps, people, we'll get there.

Man, how come we lose a talent like Graham Greene at 73 but have to deal with Trump, in whatever vegetative state he's currently in, just because he's sold whatever's left of his soul to the Devil?

Nate Silver, James Carvill, and Clair McCaskill should pool their resources and start a podcast giving 90s political advice for prospective Democratic candidates and interviewing other has-been political figures... Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Adam Schiff can kick it off.

Fox News headline: Guns used by Minneapolis church school shooter Robin Westman were purchased legally, police say This is not news, and it neither explains, justifies, nor excuses what happened and how it happened. Very few Americans purchase guns illegally because they don't need to.

Genius! They’ll never find you. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Charlie Kirk should thank Taylor Swift for giving him relevance again for a day. As Krasnov normalizes the talking points Charlie "the thumb" Kirk formerly relied upon to trigger social media discourse around his bigoted comment de jour, he has been struggling to be more controversial than reality.

Thoughts and prayers to Trump as he navigates the conflicting emotions of rage over his arch nemesis taking over all social media today and relief that he didn't have to fabricate another implausible crisis to distract us from his lack of effort to release the Epstein files due to his being in them.

Is it possible for JB Pritzker and other blue state governors (or other state positions) to refuse/prevent entry of the National Guard/military into their states/cities? If they're driving in, set up road blocks. If they fly in, block their exit from the planes.

CNN: Trump plans to join law enforcement on streets of Washington, DC, Thursday night. If there truly is a God, PLEASE let it happen for real this time, not some staged near-miss.

Trump is all over the Epstein files, you can bet on it!

The Hill headline: Trump: ‘I’m not here to negotiate for Ukraine’ well DUH, we knew that already.

This is equal parts awesome and hopeful.

If Gavin Newsom *really* wants to fuck with Trump, he should gerrymander CA down to the most districts of the smallest size he can manage... then make CA an all-or-nothing state running by popular vote and give all the districts to whoever gets the most votes.

What happened to 'America First'?

Just read a piece saying Katie Porter may struggle within her own party as she had few close allegiances. That should be a badge of honor for her and a signal to the younger progressive Dems in Congress to embrace and encourage her. This is a woman who ALWAYS brings the receipts!

Apparently a DNC fundraising email caught me at just the wrong time. It asked if there was ANYTHING they could say that I would donate so they can fight Trump's BBB. - Explain just how when you haven't the numbers anywhere and the bill passed. - Let the Primary votes decide - Abolish super delegates

How hard can making a trade deal with Canada be when you already have one?

One thing The Handmaid's Tale got absolutely right that is rarely discussed, is the willingness of the right-wing women to support all of the misogynistic legislation introduced by old, white male government... until they feel privileged to do something and are pulled to heel by that same group.

ENOUGH with the FAKE assassination attempts already! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

A better Superman than Dean Cain

Where is Elon nowadays? He's been awful quiet, which is very unlike him. Was the Tesla earnings call THAT BAD? Dude had an opportunity to buy back some good faith (from gullible MAGAtards) and just let the sizzle die.
